Planet 5 × Peak Design — Made for the Mountains

Planet 5

Built in the field.
For thirty years.

Planet 5 is a luxury mountain preservation platform founded by Dirk Collins — Emmy-nominated filmmaker, co-founder of Teton Gravity Research, and fine art photographer with three decades in the world's most demanding mountain environments. We work at the intersection of preservation photography, high-altitude specialty coffee, guardian memberships, and origin expeditions.

Our founding belief: the people who love wild places most are the ones best positioned to protect them. Every product we make, every expedition we lead, returns directly to the ecosystem it came from.

Origin Expeditions

An ongoing program of fine art preservation expeditions to the world's great mountain ranges. Each produces imagery, film, and stories that directly fund the ecosystems they document.

The perfect travel
companion — for your
gear and for you.

Peak Design bags and travel gear move with Dirk Collins and his team across Nepal, Patagonia, Kenya, and the Swiss Alps — carrying cameras, lenses, and everything else that makes the work possible. Beautiful, functional equipment for people who are always on their way somewhere extraordinary.

Two brands.
The same
conviction.

Peak Design has been Climate Neutral certified since 2018, B-Corp certified, and a 1% for the Planet member since 2010. Planet 5's model — preservation photography as a direct economic engine for mountain communities — is a story that sits naturally inside everything Peak Design already stands for.

One conversation.
Let's see where it goes.

A thirty-minute call to walk through the full expedition program, the fine art portfolio from past expeditions, and what a field gear partnership would look like in practice.

We share the full expedition brief — destination timelines, team composition, deliverable formats, and content calendar for co-promotion across both brands.

We agree on an initial expedition to activate the partnership, align on the fine art print program for your flagship stores, and confirm the Summit Shot contest timeline.

We build something that both brands are proud of — and that your audience, and ours, can actually feel.
